    Lunch Meat On Soft Diet?

    I was allowed lunch meats two weeks after surgery. But I found them very salty. Mustard helps, but who needs all that salt?

    Depression

    I'm ten weeks out. Was walking 2.5 miles a day and down 55#. Just in a funk. Have not walked for two weeks. Tired of the limited diet. Perhaps I need to start cooking at home. Tired of Wendy's chili and taco bells refried beans. Just depressed and lost motivation. Ugh!

    My Husband Hid The Scale!

    You always weigh less in the morning so it comes as no surprise the weight is higher later in the day. I record my weight as it drops based on what I weigh after my morning walk.

    Drinking After Eating

    Drinking with meals makes the food pass through the stomach quicker and you will not get all the nutritional value. Also you will be hungry sooner.

    Plane Ride Home...

    I flew first class, but used points to purchase the tickets. They kept offering snacks and meal but I stick to the water or apple juice. I had not problems whatsoever. I could have flown coach but first class was much more comfortable.
  16. I went alone and was sleeved by Dr Garcia. The staff was wonderful. Just make sure you have a contact number for them when you go to the hotel. Also I was taken early to the airport and had a five hour wait. But I think you can negotiate your departure to the airport.
  17. I also had a wonderful experience with Dr Garcia. Never any pain walked a lot out of boredom. Only knew I had surgery because of the restrictions. Excellent staff. The nurses were even quite amusing and jovial.
  18. Walking makes the ole bowels move. Sometimes I barely make it home after a two mile walk.

    Pain Killers In Mexico

    Dr Fernando Garcia supplied all the post op mess as well.
  20. Irked of the protein shakes and protein drinks just want to go out to get something normal. Even shashimi or Chinese would do. Just started my third week. Had crab bisque and five grilled shrimp yesterday. The bisque made me a little nauseated but kept it down.
